150 wat only

Hi, I have use a 150w MH for my 3ft tank, temp. will raise but my 3 x 5 inch AC help to bring down the temp. by 4-5 degrees. (31--->26) Evaporation rate is rather high at 4L/day.

PM me if you wan to get my type of fan. Below is a pic of my setup.

I find that if you do not have those submerge pumps and power heads for circulation/PS/return, the temp of the tank is lower.

I have a 1.5 nano with only a hanging filter and is blasted with 76W of PL and the temp is still 27.5. But my main FOWLR tank using an ehiem compact 1000 and eden rotating is already 30 without any lights! The best thing is that the 2 tanks are side by side.

So I guess you should be able to do with MH lighting if you do not have too many pumps in your tank.
